Sargent World Sport Seat for Tuono/R 02-05

Excellent Seat

by Sherman W. on 02/23/15

Pros:I just received the seat and it appears to be built to a much higher standard than my 2003 OEM seat was. The fit and finish is excellent. Dropped right in with no issues. Still too much snow on the ground to go out and see if it is that much better feeling, but so far I am pleased with the purchase.

Cons:I think the seat was drop shipped from Sargent, so the process was a bit protracted, but it is winter and I managed to wait.

Nice.

Pros:Quality.
Fit.
Appearance.
Lowering.

This is my second Sargent seat. I really like my first one (R1100S) and this one is every bit as good. It fit perfectly. In fact, I would say it fits better than the stock seat. The lower seat height has transformed the bike for me. I am 5'9" - 16 0lbs and was not at all intimidated with the tall stock GSA saddle. The reason to upgrade was for comfort. The stock seat would begin to bother after about 20 minutes. I learned to hate it. I still have not ridden long distance with it, but I can tell the Sargent seat is way more comfortable than the stock one.

What I did NOT expect is how the bike handles differently now that my body weight is nearly 2" lower. Nice bonus. It feels like I can toss it around better in the corners.

There are some other factors involved that have impacted the handling. I also put Fox bar risers and Fastway foot pegs on at the same time that I upgraded the seat. I wanted to lower the pegs along with the seat and get the bars a bit closer to me than the stock GSA bar risers allowed.

Cons:One place to sit.

In order to get the saddle lower, your options on where to sit on the saddle is reduced. This is not a seat where you can move around much. On the other hand, no matter how many places I tried to sit on the stock seat, it was uncomfortable. I am not really critical of the seating position. It works for me and I don't feel the need to move around.

Sargent World Sport Seat for DL650 V-Strom 04-09

Great Seat

by Jeff D. on 05/03/14

Pros:The seat fit the bike just like the factory seat. Set it on and push it into the latch. It sits a bit taller then the factory seat but that was explained in the literature before I bought the seat. The best part is that it fits my back side so much better. Wish i would have bought it earlier.
